lyrics

Verse One

Yo’, we going in and out of this relationship like
a pair of feet into some shoes that never fit right,
sometimes it's like we really cool and we in harmony,
and other times it's like I gotta’ wear my armory,
If I'm to tell the truth I really think it's cos’ of you,
cos’ you be treating us like us is something solitude,
and I don't know the reason why I won't get over you,
I see the overview; I know what I'm supposed to do,
and now I'm thinking is another person close to you?
I could be right, but hope I'm not and that I overshoot,
and even when you in my presence yo' it's like you gone,
I'm trying to tell you something, but you're looking so withdrawn,
and this ain't new to me, I seen it like a couple times,
I'm looking in your face and all I see is troubled eyes,
you doing double time, but I must of seen you down the
Ave with like a couple guys, ay’ yo’ you letting me down again.



Chorus

You letting me down again, you letting me down again,
you letting me down, you letting me down, down
she letting me down again, she letting me down again,
she letting me down again, she letting me down,
she letting me down, she letting me down.



Verse Two

She try and tell me that it's all in my imagination,
and not to make an accusation with no validation,
but everyday it's like your heart is inaccessible,
don't wanna doubt, but it's extremely irrepressible,
cos’ every time I look at you I see an empty shell,
and I can see what's obvious, so it ain't hard to tell,
just like the very last song played on Illmatic,
we used to really get along, but now it feels static,
so what's the point of either one of us pretending like
a DJ at a club who's frontin', we ain't blending right?
I'm disappointed in your total lack and disregard,
and like a piece of paper now you tearing this apart,
I'm trying to figure out exactly why we took a turn,
it ain't that easy to decipher, so I can't discern,
but at the same time I try to work the answers out,
but what I know without a doubt is that you letting me down again.


Chorus
